I just bought a Specialized Globe Centrum Sport, which is a single speed.

Since, I will ride by the LBS during my commute, I wanted to purchase my bike from them. Didn't want to bring another competitors bike in should I need help on the commute. They are a great shop, too.

The owner just got his GF the Globe in a 3 speed and she really likes it. I rode a few different bikes. The Sport being the one I picked. I went with the single speed because there is little elevation where I'd be riding and there will be less maintenance.

I need to make a few adjustments, saddle, new pedals and a bag for the rack. When it's all ready, I'll post up a pic.

Of course, I will not be riding it today with the rain and 15+ mph winds and gusts up to 45 mph.

Now, I have to work out the specifics of my commute.

Thanks all.
